Calculadora de Delta-V de FogueteFormula

## Rocket Delta-V (Tsiolkovsky Equation)

Delta-v is the total change in velocity a rocket can achieve by expelling all its propellant.

### Formula

**dv = ve * ln(m0 / mf)**

- *ve* = effective exhaust velocity
- *m0* = initial (wet) mass
- *mf* = final (dry) mass
- *ln* = natural logarithm

The logarithmic dependence means that most of a rocket's mass must be propellant to achieve high delta-v.

Exemplo Resolvido

ve = 3000 m/s, m0 = 100 000 kg, mf = 10 000 kg.

  1. dv = ve * ln(m0 / mf)
  2. mass ratio = 100000 / 10000 = 10
  3. dv = 3000 * ln(10)
  4. dv = 3000 * 2.3026 = 6907.8 m/s
